The best way to keep up with all that God is doing through Pate Ministries is to follow us on Facebook and Instagram.

What have we been doing: We have been busy with our bible clubs and hosting the first teams, including our Pastor Dr. Herb Reavis, Jr., and his wife Mrs. Lisa. We dedicated Gospel study books and Dr. Reavis encourage a group of Quichua house church pastors and leaders in Bibilan. We also dedicated the expansion project at the church at Bella Union. Thank you to those who gave to these two projects.

Prayer Request: Please pray that God would draw the hearts of the children and adults in which we work with to Him!
